You make a good case. I can find no weaknesses in your arguments.

Well-done!

Civil wars occur when the population loses faith that the institutions of government are working for them.

It's not the riots, it's the lack of mayors allowing law enforcement to stop them.

It's not the courts, it's the lack of equal justice coming from the courts towards protected classes of people.

It's not the virus, it's the lack of governors making non-partisan decisions regarding schools, restaurants, and entertainment.

It's not Congress, it's the lack of willingness to make compromises that benefit both sides.

It's not the media... well, yeah, it IS the media.

Anarchists belong in body bags and not on the streets. As long as we tolerate them as protesters and not as the criminals that they are, we have a warring society aka civil war.

YOU CANT FUND CW~II WITH EBT CARDS and SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIALS. And you have to leave Philly and Chicago to come and get me!

I have real life “exceptional” credit. Legit savings in more than one real bank and have been buying guns and reloading my own ammo for over 25 years.

I accept your challenge!

Because the De.ocrat Party will.accept nothing less than total control. One Prty Rule is its goal. They openly admire Red China.

Partner, the DemonRat Communist Party wants the Communist party to rule the U.S.A.

We do not want this to happen.

There are outside forces wanting the U.S.A. to become a Communist country.

We want freedom.

Because for Decades, Good Men were told to sit on their hands rather then enacting violence against the Socialist idiots now out in the streets rioting and threatening more of the same...

This "let the system handle it" only works when BOTH sides follow the system. The Left hasn't since the 60's in ever increasing amounts...

Now we've "lost" the Culture War and are actually losing real ground held by ENEMY COMBATANTS.

So... Yes... We're on the brink of another full on shooting and dying Civil War...

... And yes... I also know that for DECADES even talking about using violence openly has been castigated, censored, and even reviled...

How's that working out for us?

Mostly because of bloggers excerpting their own material.

The counter to your quibble:

From the view of the left, the Right is already in power and already rules over the left. So from their point of view, the Right is controlling all aspects of their life and that is what they want to overturn.
